There are still devices going as far back as Android 1.5 – Cupcake. But they only account for 0.2% of the devices accessing the store (a similar figure – 0.5% – for Donut, a.k.a. Android 1.6).

Compared to the 14-day period ending on July 2nd (it was close to 11% then), it has now grown to close to 16%. Of course, a lot of manufacturers have been upgrading devices lately, and it has had a significant contribution to the growth.

The latest version, Jelly Bean, is at 0.8%, but it’s too early for it to play an important part in this competition (for lack of a better word).

Even so, Gingerbread still remains the most popular Android version. It accounts for over 60% of devices accessing the Google Play Store during the same time period.

I’m sure this won’t last too long, and Ice Cream Sandwich will steadily take over. And we’ll be here to watch it happen.
